My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Sweet baby Tiermisu has arrived here at HSWC just in time for the yummy season of desserts!
She is hoping to find her forever home and people who will devote themselves to her happiness. We are excited to turn things around for her and find her the perfect home:

💗💗💗💗💗
She is polite, well mannered and sits at her kennel door with pleading eyes. She is very timid.
She is the perfect compact size with some growing still to do. Currently 46 pounds. Can gain some weight.

💜💜💜💜💜
She is an easy walker. She would rather curl up in your lap.

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sweet easy loving personality. Shy at first, but after 15 seconds of gentle kind words to her she will cuddle in your lap and your heart will melt!!

🟢😻 She does not mind cats and they don't seem to mind her.
🟢🐶She is not reactive to dogs right now. Very Fearful going by the barking kennels.
🟢👫 She will thrive in a quiet home with loving people. She is not the rambunctious dog that will wrestle and play fetch endlessly and jump all over you right now. She has a meek and Mild nature, and should be given gentle quiet commands and love.
🐾 She will benefit from basic obedience training to help her gain some confidence.
Please come and give this sweet girl a chance at a better life. She is still a puppy and is very trainable. We look forward to watching her blossom with TLC the staff and volunteers will give her. Come and be a part of the team to help her heal (and heel😁) we know she will be someone's amazing best friend!

📖Background:
This doll was found on the streets, brought in and no one came for her. From her body language, she seems to have been exposed to some harsh corrections. She should be handled with TLC
Time to decompress and learn your new routine.
Love -patient and kind.
Commitment- a supportive family that will be there and help guide her to her best most confident and well loved self.
If your lifestyle matches up with hers please consider inviting her to be your roommate, best friend and watch her brighten up and fill your life with love.

A "meet and greet" is required with all family members and the pet prior to finalizing the adoption application. If someone is adopting a dog and has another dog at home, we also require a "meet and greet" for the dogs as well. All animals in the home must be up to date on vaccinations prior to new pet going home. We do not adopt to people who will keep the pet outside exclusively. We may do a home visit either pre or post-adoption. Animals adopted from us are not be sold or given to another person. We verify all information on the adoption application and may deny an application with any false information on it. A follow up call or visit is done on all adoptions within first 30 days of adoption.

More about this shelter

The Humane Society of Wicomico County was started in 1968 by a group of people who wanted to help improve the lives of animals. We have come a long way in our 40+ years! We have a staff dedicated to making sure the animals that come to our doors are loved and protected as they wait for their forever home. Not only are our animals vaccinated, wormed and given flea preventative, we can treat animals that come to us with mange, ringworm, heartworm and pay for animals to be seen by an outside vet should there be a need. We have an on-site spay/neuter clinic that not only is used for our animals but we also offer low cost spay/neuter for animals of the public. We provide emergency boarding for victims of domestic abuse, fire, and medical emergencies. We also have the capability to set up an off-site emergency shelter for people evacuated from their homes. In addition, we have an education program to help teach kids about being a responsible pet guardian. We work with a wide range of rescue groups and our animals have been transported from our mid-Atlantic area throughout the North Eastern United States. Our shelter is an open admission shelter and we will take in approximately 3500 animals this year. We do what we do because of our love for animals and our desire to make a difference in their lives every single day.
